The Playoffs Expose Why Defense Must Be The Focus This Offseason | Doin’ Alright DRAFT EDITION
Episode 81:
Bryan Broaddus and Voch Lombardi cover how Dallas should approach hiring its next defensive coordinator and whether waiting on Jim Leonhard is worth the risk with other teams still in the playoffs. The guys also discuss how watching this weekend’s playoff games has reshaped the way the Cowboys should think about rebuilding their defense, aiming to fix it in just one offseason. They question whether a new coordinator and two early picks are enough to turn things around quickly. The episode wraps with more draft talk, breaking down prospects like Elijah Sarratt, Keionte Scott, Emmanuel Pregnon, and Dani Dennis-Sutton and how they could fit in Dallas.

We need a Podcast Broadus, not a repeat yourself and burn a segment on the radio Broadus. When he is asking questions, he is great at that. Or to the point on answers.
just don't draft an edge they take a few years we don't have time
Rex Ryan?
One thing I've noticed…Brian sure likes to "assume" alot!
A good defensive coordinator can make a world of difference as far as how players perform!!! We don’t need 10 new starters!!!😂
If Cowboys do it right. They’re 2-3 years away from having a defense like Houston & Seattle.
What would be the desire, possibility, and cost of the Cowboys getting some or all of these free agents in 2026 in preparation for the draft?
Jaelan Phillips, edge, Eagles
Quay Walker, LB, Packers
Travis Jones, DT, Ravens
Jaylen Watson, CB, Chiefs
Nick Cross, S, Colts
I've always been defense first. There's a reason why no matter the sport they preach defense wins championships.
I agree with Voch. It’s a lot of guys in the playoffs that are playing smart and hard. No superstars etc. Coaching takes a team a long way.
Just look at the Indiana Hoosiers…no 5 star players. Likely no first round defensive players. But they have one of the best defenses.
Talk about Nashun Wright cornerback with the Chicago Bears. Didnt we have him here in Dallas? Now he is balling in Chicago
Don't we just want a couple of good edge rushers and a couple of good linebackers to get more pressure on the QB? With maybe a veteran safety or corner, wouldn't just those things alone make our defense much better?
Bryan should just say he distrusts the Jones boys. It shouldn’t matter what the new DC says if they and McClay can’t see the team is devoid of defensive talent we have already lost.
Setup is amazing looking 😍
Dammit we need LB’s.. 😒 PLS
I’ve watched a couple of sneaky guys for later rounds I like Lander Barton unique body type, and Jalon Kilgore solid safety from South Carolina
I know that I had to watch this a second time, and he said the right thing. We need to focus on Defense!
Jaquan Brisker was a dog against the rams and he’s a free agent. He’d be a huge upgrade over Donovan Wilson. For about $10m we’d take care of one starting position righfbtgere
Same ole same shit the Jones are in charge and nothing is gonna change 😂😂😂
Could we get a day 2 pick for Osa or we cant move him due to cap? should osa not be traded? what did we see on film this year that warrants his salary?
Any coach that comes in that building, having to deal with Jerry is doomed to fail. The track record proves it. Jerry is the culture and that football culture is failure.
My gut feeling says DC Florez from Minnesota will be at Pittsburgh or Buffalo
Hopefully, they aren't mostly all gone if you take toooooo long.
Would you draft mesidor.The DE from Miami at 20 if all the other top pass rushers are already gone?
Voch im watching the national championship, what about this Mesidor dude? He's a hustling fool.
Its crazy after watching this terrible Def all year that Voch finally came to his senses to draft def and hopefully foots and Zak will stop talking about jerimyah Love at 12. You can not fight fire with fire, you fight fire with water i use the KISS method. Keep It Simple Stupd: K I S S. attack free agency with Def and double down with more def talent.
NO OFFENSE THIS OFFSEASON PERIOD ! ALL DEFENSE ! Completely revamp the defense . Pls deeply consider DOUBLE down in LB in free agency or draft or if you was me ID DOUBLE DOWN IN THE DRAFT on LBS . We NEED to get that room together .
I am so happy you all can see this because if you watch football and can’t see that our Dallas Cowboys are built Like a bodybuilder with no legs; you are not watching this season playoffs. These teams are defensive minded and hitting hard. It’s no way Dallas is close to those playoff teams because we spend money on Offensive Lineman, WR, QB at least 200 million a year. How can we build a defense like these playoff teams spending all our salary cap on offense?
Does age affect you draft scouting?Mansoor Delane is 22 people are killing Daylen Everette 21 for be a 5 yr senior going against 18 19 yr olds….i would like to know your thoughts. I know VOCH briefly said sumn about DL but in a corner does age and that 5th Yr make an impact on how you view the player??

Daylen is gonna be one of the fastest corners in the draft went to IMG like Booker he isn’t a Champ Bailey or nothing but kid competes great frame I like the way he competes Sec MVP as well he is getting no love. I would like to know your thoughts Thanks!
I just hope Schotty is taking note of the playoffs as well
Carter Smith??
I don't think they want Brian Flores because if he doesn't get a head coach job, he probably will next year. Then they will be doing this again next offseason
Respectfully if the defense was a. Piece of paper i would rip 70% crumbled up to the 🗑 and reset
The Zimmer hire took a while…but that was more for an announcement. I believe it was already known he was going to be the DC
It was so depressing seeing all these other teams be able to hold it together for their QB when they have turnovers or if the offense starts slow. QBs fans have been made to think Dak sucks because the defense is so bad they don’t know what real football teams look like. All the QBs had like 3-4 turnovers and the defense held just fine
Us and I think jets are the only 2 teams that can have an in-person interview during bye week
I watched every team in NFL this multiple times. Some talented, some not. I watched teams with heart, teams with solid schemes. The Cowboys Defense lacked all of these. The single worst defense schematically, effort, heart I’ve ever seen. Lacked basic fundamentals, discipline. It was hard to watch.
The Cowboys should interview and sign Al Harris, trade both 1st round picks for Miles Garrett and Clevelands 2nd round pick, sign Quincy Williams in FA and draft DB's and LB's🤔
Why aren’t we talking more about trading down ? We have so many holes in defense I’d love to pick up a 2nd maybe a third , in my opinion, there’s not too much top and talent, but there’s a ton of players from 15 to 50 that are very similar in skill
Defense Wins Championships
SCHOTTY DO LIKE ONE .BOOSMAN TOLD YOU WHAT SCHOTTY LIKE .THAT FIT HIS SYSTEM .BUT THEY STILL WATING FOR THE OTHER GUYS. NOT GANNON NO GOOD JERRY BETTER LET SCHOTTY PICK HIS OWN DC 🎉😊😅😮😂
